Hi,
I have a problem starting qmail. In FreeBSD I used to start
it by making a symlink in /usr/local/etc/rc.d to
/var/qmail/rc. Well, in OpenBSD there is no such dir.
I read in the FAQ that I can start daemons from
/etc/rc.local, but I still weren't able to start qmail.
First, I tried just adding /var/qmail/rc at the end of the
file, then I tried:
if [ -x /var/qmail/rc ]; then
echo -n ' qmail'; /var/qmail/rc
fi
Upon boot, just before it starts cron, it freezes.
I have to press ^C in order to continue.
The rc script is actually /var/qmail/boot/home. I think
there is something wrong with it because if I try to
execute it manually, it doesn't return a command prompt,
but when I go to another terminal, it shows qmail
running.
And where am I supposed to put the scripts which I want to
be executed upon each boot?
Thanks,
Vasil
I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
